When I was either 1 or 2 yrs old my mother gave birth to my half sister. She was a single mother to me‚ my name is Tonya Kay‚ and knew she wanted my sister to have all the things she already struggled to give me. She wanted her to have 2 parents who would give her everything she needed and give her all the support and love she would need. She was very loved. I think her birth name was either Tammy or Cynthia. My Mama Sherry Thomson‚ struggled with her decision. My sister looked just like me except she had curly hair. She had decided to bring her home and do her best because she loved her so much. But a nun at St Vincent's hospital in Little Rock came into the room and spoke to her about her deciding to keep my sister. Whatever she said changed Mama's mind. She said it was one of the hardest decisions she ever made and it tore her heart out‚ but she did give her to the family who could give her everything Mama couldn't at that moment. She never stopped thinking of her‚ we spoke about it often thru the years. She passed away from breast cancer 18 years ago and told me to find her and let her know about the breast cancer and that she was loved and that she never stopped thinking of her and loving her. There are 3 of us. We have different fathers but we don't do thr half brother or sister thing in our family. Siblings are siblings and we don't differentiate between half or whole siblings in our family. There is also another sister who was placed for adoption in Oklahoma in 1972 or 1973. We are searching for her also. This is why I am not sure if our sisters birth name is Cynthia or Tammy because those are the names of our sisters at birth. Terry Renee and Donnie Lee would love to meet our sister and get to know who she is and if she had the life our Mama wanted her to have. And if she doesn't want to connect with us that's okay too. I live in Arkansas and my siblings live in Oklahoma and we are hoping she is still in the area. But most of all it is important that she know about the breast cancer risk that is hereditary and aggressive even if she chooses to not connect with us. If it happens that she doesn't wish to connect‚ please make sure she knows that Mama had breast cancer. Either way we will respect her wishes. Also‚ I belive Dr. Holitik delivered her‚ as he delivered me 2 years before.
